On Valentines day ELLE tweeted: We’re one of the first in SA to get our hands on the #BlackBerry10! @BlackBerry_ZA just took our #LFW reporting to the next level! We’ve had time to try and test the brand-new BlackBerry Z10 smartphone, which is faster, smarter and smoother. Here’s what you need to know:

It’s super sleek and slim, so even before we started playing, we were very excited!

The BlackBerry Hub is a single place to manage all your conversations: whether work email, BBM messaging or social media, it’s just a swipe away. You don’t need to close and navigate to your next icon or conversation – the Hub allows you to keep all your conversations open and in one spot!

The camera and its functions on this phone are amazing and BlackBerry’s Time Shift function makes it a must for fashion-loving photographers. Let’s say you’re at a fashion show, you’ve taken a picture, but the models eyes are closed. Time Shift lets you capture a shot and ‘re-wind’ or ‘fast-forward’ the image until you have your prefect shot – eyes open, clear and the exact moment you wanted! The Story Maker function lets you bring a collection of photos and videos together along with music and effects to produce an HD movie that you can instantly share! How cool is this?

The touchscreen keyboard is another function which makes your life easier – yup, it learns how you write!

We’ve tried it and now you can too! Click here to see how the BlackBerry Z10 works and looks.
